      Looks pretty nice! How did you mount the LEDs?

      There is an adhesive on the back of the LED strip. Its like a flat piece of string with the LED's on. Found them at my local sound shop for R60 a side, which is +-$5.50

      Are the LEDs waterproof?

      I stripped the wires going to the parking lights. If you see on your aveo, there should be 3, the middle 1 is pointless and has no purpose. So the 2 wires on each side i stripped, soldered them on, wrapped in electrical tape and made it look neat again. ran the wires loosly around to each corner of the lights, the just stuck them on with the adhesive. There were some places where is didnt stick but nothing that super glue couldnt fix.
